Questions & Answers about Elektronik başvuruda yerleşim yeri yazıyor.

What does başvuruda mean, and what is the -da ending?

Başvuruda means in/on the application.

The ending -da is the locative case, which often corresponds to English in, on, at depending on context.

• başvuru = application
• başvuruda = in/on the application

In this sentence, English would usually say on the electronic application or in the electronic application, but Turkish just uses the locative and does not force the same distinction English does.

Also, the form is -da here because of vowel harmony and consonant voicing:

• başvuru ends in a back vowel, so not -de
• it ends in a vowel, so d is used, not t

Why is it elektronik başvuru and not something like başvuru elektronik?

Because in Turkish, adjectives normally come before the noun, just like in English.

• elektronik başvuru = electronic application

Also, Turkish adjectives do not change form for number, gender, or case. So elektronik stays the same.

Examples:

• elektronik belge = electronic document
• elektronik başvuru = electronic application
• elektronik formda = in the electronic form
